I first saw a wooden Bass Clarinet bell in London in 1976.  Stephen Trier had made it on a lathe in the backyard  of his home in Hammersmith. I was struck by the beautiful craftsmanship, which  allowed one to appreciate the wood's natural grain.

Since finding bell-sized pieces of hardwood is not easy,  there are those who resort gluing two smaller pieces together!  Rossi Bass Clarinet bells are created from a single block of  African Blackwood (Dalbergia  Melanoxylon) from Mozambique . This wood is hard enough to provide the beautiful, deep sound the instrument requires. Players using this bell include Howard  Klug ( Indiana University ), Henri Bok (Rotterdam Conservatory) and  Pedro  Rubio (Madrid  Conservatory).

To order  the   Rossi   Bass Clarinet Bell , send me an original bell, as I will use the u–shaped portion  as the connection between the instrument and the wooden bell.
The price of Rossi Bass Clarinet Bell is US$1,500.-  Price includes shipping from Chile.
